**Gargoyle has been with us 101 days too long, he's a great dog and deserves to be in a home!**🗿🐾 Meet Gargoyle – the sweetest “statue” you’ll ever meet!At almost 2 years old and 46 lbs, Gargoyle is the perfect medium-sized pittie with a big personality and an even bigger heart.

He loves treats of any kind, enjoys playing fetch, and is highly motivated by food and praise, which makes him a great candidate for continued training.When meeting new people, Gargoyle starts off shy and polite, but once he’s comfortable, his goofy, energetic side shines through. He can be very jumpy at first, especially on walks, but it’s all excitement—he’s just trying to get your attention and share his joy. With guidance and consistency, he’ll continue to improve.🐶 Dog-friendly: Yes!🐱 Cats: Not a match (high prey drive)🏡 Best home: Someone who can keep him safely contained and provide structure for his energy👧Great with kids! He used to live with an autistic child and was great with her. Like any pittie, Gargoyle is incredibly affectionate and thrives on love and attention. He truly is the sweetest boy, and once he chooses you as his person, you’re his whole world. 💖Gargoyle is neutered, microchipped, flea & tick treated, heartworm tested negative, and on prevention—all ready to trade his roaming days for a forever home.Adopt Gargoyle and let this charming “guardian” protect your couch instead of your roof. 🛋️🐶💕Gargoyle's adoption fee is $225.

Story
With his striking brindle coat and a face that could melt anyone’s heart, Saivyer is truly one of a kind. This sweet boy is a gentle soul who is looking for a partner in life—someone to share adventures with and a couch to cuddle on at the end of the day.The Perfect Companion:Saivyer is the ultimate "velcro dog." He craves human affection and would spend every hour of the day snuggling if he could! While he is a softy at heart, he also has the natural instinct to be a loyal protector of his home and family.A+ Student: He is already house trained, crate trained, and walks beautifully on a leash!Adventure Buddy: He absolutely loves car rides, playing ball, and exploring the great outdoors.Motivated by Love: He has a passion for toys and treats, and he shows no signs of food aggression.The Ideal Match: Saivyer would thrive as a companion for a single person or a young couple who can provide him with a consistent routine.His Perfect Home:Because Saivyer loves his humans so much, he can experience some separation anxiety. With patience and continued training, he will overcome this and become the most loyal best friend you've ever had.Other Pets: He can be selective with other dogs, so a meet-and-greet with any current canine residents is a must! He isn't a fan of small animals, so a home without them (or with very careful supervision) is best.If you would be interested in giving me a furever home, please contact The Humane Society of Adams County, Inc. at (937) 544-8585 to set up a time to come meet me and fill out an adoption application!

If you’ve been holding off on adopting a dog because you think he’d be lonely without a buddy—Petey would like to personally invite you to knock it off. He’s not lonely. He’s not misunderstood. He just doesn’t like other dogs. At all. He’ll yell if they get too close, and he means it. But people? He’s all in. Loves attention, good with kids, housebroken, rides well, and sleeps like a rock. Petey is 43 lbs, 3 years old, and would like to be your one and only. Forever. Adopt Petey. He’s got manners for people and middle fingers for other dogs—if dogs had fingers, that is.
